Skill Inheritance is a major mechanic in almost all recentAtlusgames, which players have come to rely on to make the best Personas and demons.Persona 5 Phantom Xmay change a lot of general Persona mechanics to fit the game’s unique format, but it does still have skill inheritance.

How to Learn New Skills in Persona 5 X
The main way you’ll be learning new skills inPersona 5 Xis through the Persona Training menu in theVelvet Room.

Newly fused Personas do come with powerful set skills, so sometimes the best thing to pass to a new Persona is helpful passive buffs.
